kdesu problems in kde4

Hi everyone, I hope someone help me, I think it could be a possible package bug, but i'm not sure about this.
My problem is when I want to run kdesu <application>, I always receive the same error message:

kdesu(<i think a process id number>)/kdesu (kdelibs): [ /home/pierre/chroot/arch64-testing/kdelibs/trunk/src/kdelibs-4.2.0/kdesu/kcookie.cpp : 84 ] Could not run xauth.

Ok, some thing to mention that could help is that I have only installed kdevelop from testing repos im not sure if that messed something about kdelibs, I will remove it and see what happens.

Other thing to mention is that I looked for xauth and found that there is a package called xorg-xauth which I don't have installed. Is this package missing for the correct use of kdesu???

Well thanks a lot and maybe I should report these to pierre who actually is the package maintener of kdelibs.
